I've been meaning to reshade my 'wolverine' drawing I done back in october last year, so decided to do it today. And I know some people will prefer the original over this one, but for me this is how how I originally wanted it to look, but i lacked the skills to do ot back then. So for better or worst i took the plunge and did it, luckily i still have the original scan, just in case.

Anyway, Wolverine is one of my all time favoutite characters from since i was a kid, and Hugh Jackmans wolverine in the x-men movies was spot on. So i decided to do a graphite drawing in honour of wolverine, but this defintely won't be the last.

The drawing was done on A3 Bristol Board paper using standard and mechanical graphite pencils.

I am a HUGE fan of Wolverine and have always wondered how Hugh Jackman's face managed to resemble the face of the comic character so well. I must say that you really have done justice to this kickass character. I really like the way you set his expression into one of confidence. He seems to be taunting the viewer by raising his eyebrow and displaying his claws. I was disappointed that they did not give him his classic suit in the movie but this is fine to. I have absolutely no negative comments or suggestions to make about this picture . The shading you've done to the pic compliments it in a way, but probably you should have made the whole background dark..Great job...

This is stunning. Wow. I mean, I love Wolverine, but that's not my reason for loving this. This is just talent and--I suspect--a lot of time and work! I've always wished I could do pencil drawing that are this realistic. Amazing work!

Wicked... You've done a perfect job with the hair, the facial details and especially the razor-sharp claws coming out of his hands. You've captured the personality of Wolverine, as well as Hugh Jackman (a brilliant Australian actor in his own right) with a deep sense of mystery and a keen attention span. It's as if he's looking very carefully around the landscape for trouble, claws at the ready.

Wonderful work for using just graphite pencils, I reckon it's worthy enough to join my Honorary class of favourites... Well done and thanks for sharing such a brilliant piece of work.

I really love how you give texture to everything -- you can tell the skin apart from the leather not only because of it being darker and lighter, but because the skin has a smoother texture and the leather looks more rough and the shine quality is different.

Thanks alot. This was an old drawing i just reshaded with some of the new techniques i've learnt. And i do actually shade the leather with alot more agression and with strokes, whereas the skin i shade very softly.

I know, but i was to scared before as i did not want to ruin it. And I've actually rehaded my avengers drawing slightly, and rescanned a few of my other drawings. As some of the scans did not come out the way my drawings look like in real life.
